It’s time again to revel in some donated words and make some poems out of them. This week’s words were given to us by Jill, with some extra ones thrown in for fun.
To play along, all you have to do is borrow some (or all) of these words and use them in a poem. Once you’re done, you can either post a link to it in the comments here or wait until Thursday’s Get Your Poem On post. That’s all there is.
If you’d like to donate some words of your own, simply email them to info (at) readwritepoem (dot) org.

Couldn’t resist this one. I’m in a remote place and only have internet connection when I go to town, so it may take me awhile to visit others, but I’ll do my best. Please be patient.
